burying Nemeth isn't a terrible idea - he only costs an extra $375K this season than his buyout would. I think either option should be on the table, though - his buyout has a weird structure where it has a $1M penalty this year, no penalty next year, and than back to $1M for 24-25/25-26. If you believe the hype about the cap going back to a big increase in the next year or two once the players have paid back their escrow debt, I think the buyout is an interesting gamble.
I think Calle Jarnkrok or Colin White would be interesting adds over Statsny, in case Rodrigues gets too pricey - Jarnkrok has the lower ceiling but higher floor to me, but I think White comes cheaper and could be a good reclamation project.
